Mothers' Day

Sorry for the delay in blogging. It takes some time to post when I have 4 kids wanting my attention. So I am sneaking away to update our latest news.

On Mother's Day this year Mike was very nice to me. He got me a few special gifts that I have been wanting for a while. A new camera. I have been searching for this camera since Thanksgiving.

See the photo on the front. There's a feature that allows you to see yourself if you take a self portrait. This is my favorite feature on this camera!

Mike also made me a new apron with the phrase "Good Cooker" written on it. Mason always tells me that I'm a good cooker. It was sweet.

But in all honesty Motherhood is a hard postition to hold. Some women chose not to try out and some call it quits. But being a mom can be very demanding and challenging. At times I want to pull my hair out but then I remember to take a breath and count.....

It usually helps me relax and calm down. And remember what my sister-in-law, Chrissy, wrote on facebook. I traded eyeliner for dark circles, salon hair cuts for ponytails, long showers for 10 minute ones with the door open, late nights for early mornings, designer purses for diaper bags....and I agree with her 100%. I love being a mom. But flowers always sweeten the deal.....

About Me

I grew up in the windy city of Chicago but now have planted my roots here in Utah. I am married to the most imperfect man named Mike. I love his flaws, his strenghts, his charm and his humor. We have 4 children who drive us crazy 60% but when that other 40% shows- MAN.... IT'S GREAT!
